Meet your staff prior to their arrival at your home:

Jimmy Davis

I started in the garage door business in FL back in 1996. I was a founding member of one of the largest garage door franchises in the country. For four years I traveled around the country opening garage door franchises and seeing them through the selling process. In this time I learned a tremendous amount about customer service from a service standpoint and the new door installation process.

In 2002 I left the big franchise company realizing NC is where I wanted to call home. I started Garage Door Specialist in 2002 with just my wife and I as the only employees. Over the years we have slowly grown to have 15 employees, 4 of them family. I enjoy meeting our customers during estimates and repairs and also working with customers to find the perfect garage door to compliment their home.


Stephanie Davis

I began working in the garage door industry in 1998 when my husband and I opened a Garage Door Repair Service in Salt Lake City, UT. We eventually decided after opening up service companies in a few other cities to return home to Cary, NC and live in the triangle among our family and friends. We take pride in providing trustworthy service to the residents of the Raleigh-Durham and Wilmington areas to keep their garage door working safe and dependable. In my spare time I enjoy my three kids and exploring all of the beautiful areas NC has to offer.

I began working in the garage door industry after college in 1975. My dad started a garage door business from the basement of our home in 1967 on Long Island, NY. After working with him a few years, learning the garage door business, we expanded into a main office/warehouse with 5 showrooms and locations. We continued to grow installing both residential and commercial products and in 1988 we opened another location in Florida including an office and 2 showrooms. I enjoy working with clients in a showroom setting or in-home helping them design and choose the right door for their exciting garage door project.
